Smile Droning/Humming feel when turning at 1100 - 1300 RPM

Hello Guys ,

I just wanted to see if anybody has the same issue as I do.

I have a 2012 E71 X6M with 45000 KM right now

I first noticed the issue around 23000 KM.

Whenever the car is within the range of 1100 to 1300 RPM, then if I move the steering wheel as I move to left or right, I get a "Droning/Humming" feel underneath the front end of the car, it feels like something is moving or rubbing underneath.

The feel would go away once the steering wheel is straight or out of the 1100 - 1300 RPM range

I had the car checked out at multiple dealerships, and nobody could really tell me why this is happening, so they refuse to acknowledge the issue

Routine checks:

- Steering fluid checked okay
- Everything is tight underneath
- Tires changed from Summer to All Season
- Bearings are good

If anybody has the same experience, please share

Thank you very much in advance

Front driveshaft? There was a recall on these for the e70's not sure if it applied to the M's.
